9.2 Error Log
The simulator provides an interface that loaded modules may use to report critical errors
or unexpected conditions. The messages are always written to a file, and the most-recent
messages may be displayed in a window. The error log may not be disabled.
The most-recent error log entries may be viewed by selecting the "View→Error Log"
entry from the Main Window menu, shown in Figure 9-2.
The error log file is enabled by checking the "Log to File" check box in the Message log
dialog (Figure 9-2) and setting a filename for the error log. This file is created (or
truncated to zero length if it already exists) and opened whenever a BSD file is opened or
a new BSD is created. The error log is closed whenever the BSD is closed.
